Elsie's Eight | November Edition

Here at Elsie Green, we have cultivated a culture of extreme inspiration - good books, delicious recipes, photographs, films, and any and everything in between. 
 
This month, we rounded up what our shop gals are dreaming of wearing to their Thanksgiving dinners. Some are keeping it casual with elevated athleisure, while others are going all out in their most elegant dresses.

Elsie's Edit | Bookshops Around the World

I think bookshops in foreign cities are often overlooked as windows into the city's culture. It's a great way to meet locals and spend a quiet day slowing down the pace of your travels.

The Eames Institute in Richmond, CA: A Must-Visit for Design Lovers

If you’re a fan of mid-century modern design (or just cool, iconic furniture), you’ve probably heard of Charles and Ray Eames. But did you know there’s an entire institute dedicated to their legacy right here in Richmond? The Eames Institute is a hidden gem that’s a must-visit for anyone who loves design, creativity, or just wants to dive into some fascinating history.

Laurie's List | A Pared Down Tabletop Edit

Having a well stocked pantry does not always mean having cupboards overflowing with options.  Usually just having the right things can create just as much magic as having many many things.

A Conversation with Griffin Wilson

A Conversation with Griffin Wilson

Griffin Wilson, also known as cabincorn, is a special type of chef. He's intimately acquainted with his ingredients and writes poetic odes to mushroom and the radish. He makes me feel like I could make the beautiful radish butter but also that I must study the radishes and the butter sufficiently before I attempt such a feat. In short, Griffin loves and celebrates his food.
